Margot at the Wedding movie - See How We Are lyrics

rate me

<br>

There are men lost in jail<br>

Crowded fifty to a room<br>

There's too many rats in this cage of the world<br>

And the women know their place<br>

They sit home and write letters<br>

And when they visit once a year<br>

Well they both just sit there and stare<br>

See how we are<br>

Gotta keep bars in between us<br>

See how we are<br>

We only sing about it once in every twenty years<br>

See how we are<br>

Oh see how we are<br>

Now there are seven kinds of Coke<br>

500 kinds of cigarettes<br>

This freedom of choice in the USA drives everybody crazy<br>

But in Acapulco<br>

Well they don't give a damn<br>

About kids selling Chiclets with no shoes on their feet<br>

See how we are<br>

&quot;Hey man, Whats in it for me?&quot;<br>

See how we are<br>

We only sing about it once in every twenty years<br>

See how we are<br>

Oh see how we are<br>

Now that highway's coming through<br>

So you all gotta move<br>

This bottom rung ain't no fun at all<br>

No fires and rockhouses and grape-flavored rat poison<br>

They are the new trinity<br>

For this so-called community<br>

See how we are<br>

Gotta keep bars on all of our windows<br>

See how we are<br>

We only sing about it once in every twenty years<br>

See how we are<br>

Oh see how we are<br>

Well this morning the alarm rang at noon<br>

And I'm trying to write this letter to you<br>

About how much I care and why I just can't be there<br>

To draw your bath and comb...and comb your hair<br>

Last night in a nightspot<br>

Where things aren't so hot<br>

My friend said, &quot;I met a boy and I'm in love&quot;<br>

I said, &quot;Oh really... What's this one's name?&quot;<br>

She said, &quot;His first name is Homeboy&quot;<br>

I said &quot;Could his last name be Trouble?&quot;<br>

See how we are<br>

Ah Homeboy... Isn't that a Mexican name?<br>

See how we are<br>

We only sing about it once in every twenty years<br>

See how we are<br>

Oh see how we are<br>

Yeah see how we are <br>
